"A powerful study of widowhood and grief." --The Observer
"There are few fiction writers whose words reach out to us from the very first sentences of a book, compelling our assent and our delight. Tóibín is one of these writers.... Reading down the first page of Tóibín's new novel, Nora Webster, I know that this novel is the real thing, rare and tremendous." --Tessa Hadley, The Guardian
"Heart-rendingly transcendent.... Mr. Toibin's prose often has an elegant, visceral simplicity as he describes the slight otherworldliness that Nora finds in her new, solitary life as a widow." --Janis Maslin, The New York Times
